This week was an absolute scorcher with daytime temps in the low 30C, but we had no rain so I had to water more frequently. Seen a lovely burst of growth after last week's nutrients. Decided to bend and secure today to learn new technique. I'm fairly happy with the results. Think I might need to book up a scrog net worth all my girls after this training.

Ho portato le mie piccole amiche che mi ripuliranno la mia terapia .forza belle coccinelle 🐞 mie mangiate tutti. Ragni e uova... gnam gnam gnam 😋🤤

Drying

Had to leave for quick trip away from home for 4 days she was left alone unfortunately had to leave her under eave of garage too Incase it was gonna pour rain so she didn’t get as much sun as we would have liked. Was happy to see more bud and crystal growth. But unfortunate to find some powder mildew and leaf miners on a good handful of leaves. I ended up just cutting those bad leaves off hoping the pm and leaf miners will stop spreading! She was just watered this morning and looking pretty healthy to me.. thinking 2 - 3 more weeks ..

Was this girls first week in flower! I don't want her growing out of this tent space so I flipped her early. In the meantime, I've been low stress training her outwards to fill up the tent. My ties are holding her down and will continue for another week. Hopefully everything will be level for next week!! Lights at 100% Here are the lights details: Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED Model: MN150-022 Spectrum mode: V1 Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J Thanks for stopping by!

WEEK 13 - (05/23/2021 - 05/29/2021) Week 5, Day 32 - FLOWER: 05/26/2021 Tap water: 229ppm, 9.2 pH, 70.5℉ + FF Big Bloom: 60ml/6 gallons + FF Tiger Bloom: 45ml/6 gallons + Fish Shit: 12ml/6 gallons + Cal-Mag: 15ml/6 gallons + HydroGuard: 6ml/6 gallons + pH Down (7.5 pH before added): 20ml Mixture: 779ppm, 5.9 pH, 70.4℉ ppm/ppm = runoff/soil JB#1 - 1249ppm/461ppm, 6.3 pH AP#1 - 1330ppm/551ppm, 6.6 pH AP#2 - 1420ppm/641ppm, 6.6 pH GC#1 - 1610ppm/831ppm, 6.3 pH -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 5, Day 35 - FLOWER: 05/29/2021 I’m pretty sure I used a little too much of the Tiger Bloom in my last 2 feedings. I used ¾ strength on that particular nutrient and it seems to have caused some nutrient burn. The leaf symptoms are matching with that of an excess in either Potassium or Phosphorus as well (on the Jelly Bananen). The Glookies seems to be suffering the most, also, showing signs of what appears to be a mildly serious calcium deficiency. However, I’m unsure due to the overfeeding. Next time I feed these girls I’m going back to ½ strength on the Tiger Bloom. Lesson learned. Tap water: 226ppm, 9.1 pH, 71℉ + HydroGuard: 8ml/8 gallons + pH Down: 27ml Mixture: 270ppm, 6.3 pH ppm/ppm = runoff/soil JB#1 - 1350ppm/1080ppm, 6.5 pH AP#1 - 1180ppm/910ppm, 6.7 pH AP#2 - 1450ppm/1180ppm, 6.8 pH GC#1 - 1680ppm/1410ppm, 6.3 pH -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [SUMMARY] Well, I learned a valuable lesson this week: DO NOT use Fox Farm nutrients at anymore than half the recommended strength from the feeding chart. Despite the error in my ways, the plants are all looking pretty good still. The 2 plants that seem to be most affected by the overfeeding is the Glookies #1 & Jelly Bananen #1. The Glookies have had issues here and there throughout the grow, so it doesn't come as much of a surprise that it is responding how it is. Both of the American Pie phenotypes seem to be the most resilient of the group. Aside from the late start on AP#1's bud development, these two phenos hardly seem phased by the increase in Tiger Bloom. Regardless, I am still going to go back to ½ strength. I can hardly believe 2021 is almost halfway over. Federal Legalization of Cannabis in the United States is looking like a very real possibility this year. The mask mandate has been lifted. Halo Infinite is coming out in November. My first grow is almost at it's end. 2021 is looking to be incredible. It's all a mindset. See you all next week! And remember: Don't drink and drive, smoke and fly. 🙏 "Well, I'mma be here for a while, longer than I did expect to I was out of town, gettin' lost 'til I was rescued Now I'm in the clouds, come down when I run out of jet fuel But I never run out of jet fuel" - Mac Miller

Attention to detail

The end of week 1 has arrived. We all know how it goes. Just playing the waiting game. At this stage these girls are just working on building their root system. The roots should be hitting the reservoir in the bottom of the buckets soon then they should take off. Got the water pumping and the lights beaming 24 hours a day. Running a low dose of maxigro. Keeping the ph around 6. Will probably be topping them around day 12. Would be amazing if I can get them ready to switch to flower at the end of week 3. But for now I'm just going to check on them 420 times a day hoping they don't die. Might be back next week if they are alive. Happy growing!

Transplanted without a hitch into final bags. The big 2 plants are in 7 gallon bags and the small 2 are in 5 gallon. Everything should just fit. I used coco coir from canna with the rest of my perlite as my additional soil. They took about 6 gallons of water between the four of them. I added a full nutrient solution, same as. I've been using for weeks. I watered and fed them a day after transplanting as they were looking really dry and droopy and I was a day later than expected due to delays getting new bags. By the end of the day they had perked up, but the following day I noticed a bunch of leaf damage on the big two plants. I cut the power back to 50% and raised the light by a few inches. I'm noticing a claw shape happening at the tips so maybe a nitrogen issue?

Hab ihr ehrlich gesagt nach den anfänglichen Problemchen nicht so viel liebe geschenkt. Nur mal mit Fish Mix von BioBizz gedüngt, man sieht eindeutig Sie ist hungrig. Finde sie hat aber ihre anfänglichen Probleme überwunden. Ich habe also gestern angefangen meine Pflanzenkohle zu aktivieren, dafür habe ich Osmosewasser mit Fish, Grow-Mix und etwas Wurmhumus eingelegt und öfter umgerührt. Normalerweise soll die Kohle bis zu 2 Wochen ziehen, minimum sollen wohl 24-48 Stunden sein. Ich habe in den Stopftöpfen wieder eine Drainage mit Blähton. Die Erde ist gemixt mit 5 L Wurmhumus, 20L Light-Mix, 12L Kokos, 3L Pflanzenkohle. Als Langzeitdünger habe ich 3 Biotaps NL reingebröselt.

Well, another week has passed and it has been growing not exactly as I expected, but they warned me about using only base fertilizers with an inert soil and a higher ambient temperature, I could have a not so good result, well, it's one more experience and I liked it and let's see how it will be until the end of the cycle because the next one I already ordered a starter kit from the advanced nutrients line! Let's Go!

So sadly we lost the first seed to some unforeseen catastrophe. So we popped another one and it has taken the place of its sister wonderfully. Sorry for the time taken without update but from here on out should be smooth sailing. Can’t wait to see this girl grow!!! Until next time take it easy everyone and best of luck growers!

Caminhando para os dias desta jornada, agora levanso somente com água.. Tive algumas dificuldades com a HR no grow devido a alta umidade em minha região que chega a 100%.. Vários dias a HR ficou entre 80 a 90% e infelizmrnte o aparelho desumidificador foi insuficiente para manter o nível ideal para o cultivo, devido a esse fator tive problemas com mofo nos em alguns poucos buds, por sorte não se espalhou para todos os buds e todas as plantas, foram apenas algumas flores que apresentaram os sintomas e logo cortei por prevenção...

Week 10 Last week of Vegging, switching the lights on 12/12 cycle. Xmas is in 8 weeks now 😄 Stretch should start in approximately 7 days. I might have 2 plants (Lemon Cream Kush) finishing on the side, will see how they stretch, I didn’t expect such a Vegetative growth. Adding some pictures of what an excess of Nitrogen looks like and when the EC level of the soil is too high for a plant. Keeping an eye on the new growth of the week, the leaves aren’t clawed, meaning I can add some Nitrogen again by the end of next week to give them what they need for the beginning of the stretch. Took off some few leaves, the big fans leaves, recovering the lower shoots to give them some light. The shoots will become buds sites during flowering. Remember last week, when I spoke about the case of working in a Grow Op and the need of another week of Veg ? Plants are filling up all the light coverage now, increasing yield and gr./watts, the boss should be happy and will probably forget about this extra week 😊 Stay tuned for the Jungle show 😄 (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control)
